Re: 72 K30 Build
I read a Mass Backed Carpet thread here and it sounded promising.

 I'm thinking that is the plan then!Removed the radiator and core support to start installing the new fans & AC parts, aux. battery tray, etc. Some of the paint was flaking off the new condenser brackets, a quick scuff & paint fixed that.

Re: 72 K30 Build
Thanks, Mike slow but steady!
 Some parts are ready to go but some had a date in the glass bead cabinet. Was very pleased to find both our high & low note horns do work.

Re: 72 K30 Build
Lot of time to clean and paint all the small parts, but it all adds up to a nice finished look. I've discovered that this attention is needed even for brand new parts. Got a new brake booster and master cylinder for my truck. Assumed they were coated, and they looked coated but are now covered in surface rust.

Re: 72 K30 Build
Very true and it kind of depends what you are after. My old C30 blue, is lucky to get any new parts, a patined MC would fit right in!
Time to get some new belts ordered so made sure the old ones (now emergency spares) do fit properly. Borrowed this old gas station belt measuring tool from a friend to try and make sure we nail this first try.
